Reviews

“The music throughout the evening was one of doom, buildup, and terror to come, and it never diminished in power or intensity.”

Examiner

“It was often easy – and this is no pejorative remark at all – to forget the orchestra was even there, so seamless was their musicianship and marriage of music to image. That’s how skilful, accurate and well-timed they were. The balance of dialogue and music was also flawless. The music didn’t overwhelm the image or vice versa, creating an aural soundscape that impeccably recreated Herrmann and Hitchcock’s original dramatic intentions.”
